As the Second World War was drawing to a close in 1944, two
great works of political economy were published. One was Hayek''s
The Road to Serfdom, the driving force behind the
free-market revolution in the final quarter of the twentieth
century. The other was Karl Polanyi''s The Great
Transformation. . . . [It] is well worth reading. -Larry
Elliott, The Guardian
＂[The Great Transformation] did more than any work of that
generation to broaden and deepen the critique of market
societies.＂-J

by the "great transformation" of the Industrial Revolution. His
analysis explains not only the deficiencies of the self-regulating
market, but the potentially dire social consequences of untempered
market capitalism. New introductory material reveals the renewed
importance of Polanyi''s seminal analysis in an era of globalization
and free trade.
